  • Previous model | VINCENTpartial3+ | Vincent Systems

    Previous model of the VINCENTpartial4: proven myoelectric technology, robust, lightweight, compact, and water-resistant. VINCENTpartial3+ Waterproof to IP67 | Modular design | Individually customizable | Single Finger Control Light and compact | Numerous grip types, selectable at any time | Available in titanium The VINCENTpartial3+ is the third generation of our prosthesis series for partial hand fittings with motor-driven single fingers and thumbs. The VINCENTpartial3+ is the waterproof design variant of the VINCENTpartial3. Hand washing under running water is possible without any problems, provided that the design of the prosthesis shaft also permits this. The prosthesis can be adapted to different fitting situations thanks to our modular system. The fingers, thumb, control unit and batteries can be placed individually to accommodate an anatomical reconstruction of the hand, as far as technically possible. The fingers and thumb are attached to the prosthesis stem via a steel frame concept. This determines the hand width as well as the position and orientation of the fingers. Control can be done via EMG sensors using muscle tension or via tactile FSR sensors. Grasp selection and proportional control of the fingers follow our standardized control concept. Numerous different grips can be achieved by timed opening and closing signals as long as four long fingers and a thumb are used. If fewer electrically operated fingers are used, the grasp types are reduced accordingly. Alternatively the Single Finger Control (SFC) method can be used to control as many as 5 fingers individually by up to 5 input sensors. This makes a more intuitive and faster usage of the prosthesis possible. The fingers and thumb are made of a high-strength aluminum alloy. We also offer a special version in titanium. For a secure grasp, all components have a rubber coating. As with all our models, the index finger tip is touchscreen-compatible. The particularly powerful, compact, and at the same time robust design of our partial hand prosthesis is unique and sets us apart from all other solutions. This makes the prosthesis particularly suitable for everyday use. High quality and outstanding design go without saying.

  • Previous model | VINCENTevolution3 / 3+ | Vincent Systems

    Third-generation (of 5) myoelectric hand prosthesis with high grip strength, anatomical design, and precise control. VINCENTevolution3 / 3+ Modern look | 4-channel control | Anatomical design | Higher grip force | Compact, lightweight, robust Numerous grasps | Various wrist types | Easy operation without additional aids | Optionally available in titanium The third generation of the hand prosthesis series, VINCENTevolution3 features a multi-award-winning anatomical design concept and the proven control strategy of VINCENTevolution2. At the same time, it scores with twice the grip strength of its predecessor model, millimeter precision between the thumb and index finger, and an overall higher load-bearing capacity of the hand. The wearing comfort of the VINCENT hand series also stands out in the new model series due to the low prosthesis weight. The most striking innovation was achieved in terms of dimensions. While VINCENTevolution2 was only available in size M, VINCENTevolution3 anatomically reproduces all the usual sizes of an adult hand in sizes XS, S, M, L and XL. Sizes S and XS are currently the smallest multi-articulating hand prostheses on the market and could already be suitable for children and adolescents. The basic version of the VINCENTevolution3 is available in a stable aluminum alloy or optionally with finger components made of high-strength titanium. In addition, prosthesis wearers can choose between four different wrist options. Like all VINCENT prostheses, the third generation is equipped with a vibrotactile sense of touch and gesture-controlled handle selection. The hand can be worn in combination with a textile cosmetic glove from GF. glove factory UG, silicone or without a glove. NEW: VINCENTevolution3+ The VINCENTevolution3+ is the waterproof design variant of the VINCENTevolution3. Hand washing under running water is possible without any problems, provided that the design of the prosthesis stem also permits this. An already purchased VINCENTevolution3 with splash water protection IP64 can be upgraded to a VINCENTevolution3+ with protection against temporary submersion IP67 at any time. - Contact your service technician for more information.

  • VINCENTyoung3+ Children's & Youth Hand Prosthesis | Vincent Systems

    Lightweight, robust, multi-articulated hand prosthesis for children and young people with a modern design and waterproof – ideal for active young users. VINCENTyoung3+ Waterproof to IP67 | Modern look | Anatomical design | High grip strength | Compact, lightweight, robust Various wrist types | Numerous grip types, selectable at any time | Easy to use | Available in four colors With VINCENTyoung3+, we are introducing the third generation of the world's unique multi-articulating hand prosthesis for children and young adults. Depending on the child’s individual development, use from the age of 8 is recommended. But even with adolescents, the anatomically shaped, particularly light hand can be the first choice. For young adults who have somewhat larger hands, the VINCENTevolution5 (size XS) can also be considered. Thanks to its lightweight construction, the prosthesis scores with its low weight (approx. 350 g ) and robustness, which is extremely important for active everyday activities. The VINCENTyoung3+ is waterproof to IP67. Hand washing under running water is possible without any problems, provided that the design of the prosthesis shaft also permits this. In terms of finger strength, speed and an opening width of 80 mm, the functionality extends to that of the larger models. Three of the four motors in the hand move the long fingers independently of each other in the base joint, with the ring and little fingers moving together. The long fingers are designed to be immobile in the middle and end phalanx. From the middle joint onwards, a spring element extends to the fingertip, which supports an adaptive grip when holding objects. The thumb is moved by the fourth motor independently of the fingers. The base of the thumb can be pivoted passively and laterally via a 90° joint. An easy and quick-to-learn control system allows the user to select from 13 different grips using muscle signals. The specially tailored training app and learning games support children and young people in getting to know the control system, making the hand easy to operate after a short time. The VINCENTyoung3+ is available in four color options: powder blue, black, blackberry and natural. As with the VINCENTevolution5, the VINCENTyoung3+ also offers a choice of four wrist variants. The hand can be worn with a textile cosmetic glove from GF. glove factory UG . However, it is usually used without a glove, because: It “just looks cool”.

  • VINCENTpartial passive Finger prostheses | Vincent Systems

    Passive finger prostheses for the prosthetic reconstruction of a partial hand – up to 110° swivel range, functional, lightweight, aesthetic. VINCENTpartial passive The passive partial hand system enables prosthetic reconstruction of a partial hand. It consists of functional passive finger and thumb prostheses that can be locked in place in one or two joints in different angular positions. The weight-optimized stainless steel joints with variable-length finger or thumb attachments are very robust and water-resistant. The variable-length finger or thumb sleeves are made of durable and stain-resistant HTV silicone. The fingers are mounted directly to the stem with two screws coming from the stem or are aligned and fixed in position via various frame types made of stainless steel sheet and aluminum adapters. The fingers can be equipped with one or two successive ratchet joints. The joints function in such a way that pulling in the distal finger direction releases the locking of the joint - positioning is now possible. Releasing the finger causes the joint to lock into the desired position. In addition to the distal locking joint, the thumb has a proximal basic joint for lateral pivoting. The basic joint can be pivoted by 110° via friction locking, and the force required for this can be adjusted. The thumb is aligned and fixed in place by means of a frame plate and a threaded base plate, which can also be laminated directly into the stem. All in all, VINCENTpartial passive is an easy-to-use, robust and functional passive finger and thumb system. Flyer VINCENTpartial passive Mounting instructions finger Mounting instructions thumb

  • Fluidhand8 | Vincent Systems

    2005 - Fluidhand 8 Up The Fluidhand 8 has 8 drives that are controlled via 5 valves. The bellows in the index finger and middle finger are each hydraulically coupled with each other, and the drives of the ring and little fingers are also connected with each other via a common valve. The special feature of this further development is that the metacarpus has been replaced by a hermetically sealed pressure body. Inside the metacarpus is an elastic tank in the form of a diaphragm, in which both the drive medium (vegetable oil) and the control electronics, valves and pump are integrated; all system components "float" permanently in the drive medium. Between the pressure body shell and the diaphragm there is again a two-phase gas with a constant pressure of 2 bar. The integrated design allows any space reserves in the metacarpus to be used as a fluid reservoir, while at the same time forming a maximum gas volume for preloading the hydraulic tank. The pump can draw directly from the environment and the pump, valves and electronics are optimally cooled by the surrounding liquid. The design makes the hand very compact and at the same time extremely stable. Due to the very flat metacarpus of 30 mm and the short design, the hand achieves an anatomical shape and with only 410 g it is particularly light. The Quicksnap wrist closure makes the prosthesis compatible with all stem systems and their power supply. The prosthesis is controlled by two EMG electrodes integrated in the prosthesis socket. Simple trigger switching signals can be used to switch between pre-programmed grips and the grips can then be controlled proportionally. For the first time, a sense of touch has also been integrated into the prosthesis. The grasping force measured on the index finger via a sensor is transmitted to the system controller, which activates a vibration motor on the hand that transmits coded information to the prosthesis wearer about the force applied. In addition, the Fluidhand 8 serves as a test platform for new prosthesis controls such as grip pattern recognition or motion control using 3D sensors, research areas on which the research center has been working intensively as part of the Fluidhand development.

  • FAQ - Frequently askes questions | Vincent Systems

    Answers to frequently asked questions about hand prostheses, exoskeletons, technology, cost coverage, and everyday life with Vincent Systems products. FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions I would like a VINCENT prosthesis. What do I need to do? You can get an appointment for a consultation and a prosthetic fitting from an orthopedic technician who has experience in the field of arm prosthetics. For a consultation appointment and fitting of a VINCENT prosthesis, the prosthetist must have attended appropriate training and obtained a certificate for these products. You can find a list of certified partners here: Partners near you.(https://www.vincentsystems.de/en/zertifizierte-partner) Does health insurance pay for the prosthesis? The costs for a prosthetic fitting with a VINCENT hand system are usually covered by all insurance providers. However, it is always an individual decision by the respective health insurance company whether a fitting is approved in each case. This depends on many factors that affect the prosthesis user, not so much the hand prosthesis. As soon as a prescription from the doctor is available, the prosthetist applies to the health insurance company for the fitting. If the application is rejected, this preliminary decision can also be appealed, and the prosthetist will usually handle this for you as well. An experienced prosthetist knows the legal situation; he can advise you and guide you through the process to the finished prosthesis. From what age is the VINCENTyoung3+ suitable? We recommend our pediatric and adolescent hand prosthesis from the age of 8. Ultimately, it depends on the development of the child. Let our certified partners advise you. (https://www.vincentsystems.de/en/zertifizierte-partner) Can I get my prosthesis wet? All VINCENT prostheses are splash-proof. The Evolution3+ (https://www.vincentsystems.de/en/vincent-evolution3)and the Evolution4 a(https://www.vincentsystems.de/en/vincent-evolution4)re water resistant, these hands can be cleaned under running water and immersed in water, the immersion depth is not limited by the hand but by the water protection of the prosthesis stem. The Evolution4 has the highest water protection in the range of multi-articulating hand systems. Can I drive when wearing a prosthesis? Please do not drive in road traffic with your VINCENT prosthesis without further notice and observe our safety and warranty information. In order to be allowed to drive a vehicle with a hand prosthesis, a corresponding modification as well as the approval of the registration authority / TÜV [German technical inspection association] is usually required. Please contact your local registration office for more information. Do I have to wear a glove with the VINCENT prostheses? The hand has been designed to follow an aesthetic and anatomical shape even without a cosmetic glove.(https://www.vincentsystems.de/en/handschuhe) Materials and passive elasticities in the joints convey a natural feel. Therefore, most users wear the hand without a cosmetic cover. Vincent’s artificial hand systems combine excellent high-tech with design and quality. They are like a piece of clothing that underlines the personality of its wearer. Most people find the technology fascinating, combined with a positive interest in the new type of artificial hand. What should I do if the prosthesis breaks? Should it ever happen that the prosthesis no longer works, the orthopedic technician (https://www.vincentsystems.de/en/zertifizierte-partner)is the first port of call. He will take care of the repair or may even be able to solve the problem. How loud is the prosthesis? Depending on the prosthesis variant,(https://www.vincentsystems.de/en/produkte) there are up to 6 motors in an artificial hand. These rotate at a high speed and drive the prosthesis via a multi-stage planetary gear and another gear stage directly in the finger joint. This causes a motor noise depending on the muscle signal-controlled speed. The noise becomes louder the more motors run simultaneously and the faster they rotate. Slow hand movements are therefore also very quiet, comparable, for example, to the noise of an electric telephoto lens of a digital camera. The hand is loudest when all motors are closed simultaneously at maximum speed, e.g. in the cylinder grip. This noise can then be compared to the moving noise of a model railroad, for example. The user of the hand can therefore control the soundscape very easily via his muscle signals. How heavy is the hand? A natural human hand of an adult weighs about 350 g to 500 g, depending on body size. The weight of an artificial hand is not distributed as optimally on the arm as that of the natural one. Also, the weight of the socket, liner and the battery add to the weight of the prosthesis. In addition, the heaviest component of the prosthesis, the hand, is located at the outermost, distal end of the arm, so the leverage ratios are particularly unfavorable. A hand prosthesis must therefore be as light as possible. VINCENT hand systems weigh between approx. 300 g and 480 g, depending on the type of hand. Do you have further questions?

  • Previous model | VINCENTevolution4 Hand Prosthesis | Vincent Systems

    Previous model to the VINCENTevolution5: proven myoelectric technology, robust, lightweight, and waterproof. VINCENTevolution4 World leader at all levels WATERPROOF The world's first waterproof hand prosthesis according to IP68 (protection against prolonged submersion) EXTREMELY LIGHT The world's lightest multi-articular hand prosthesis EXTREMELY ROBUST The world's only prosthetic hand with a complete skeleton made of aluminum or titanium SENSE OF TOUCH The world's first and so far only hand prosthesis with sense of touch EASY OPERATION The world's most intuitive hand prosthesis, in which all grasp types are controlled by muscle signals PRECISION Precise powerful pinch grip enables the gripping of objects as small as ⌀1 mm CUSTOMIZABLE The world's only hand prosthesis in 5 sizes and 25 colour combinations Precision and quality The fourth generation of our hand prostheses, VINCENTevolution4, builds on the successful drive concept of VINCENTevolution3, with further improvements in gripping force and speed. The precision of the grips, the aesthetics and the quality of the hand are outstanding. Sophisticated control system A unique feature is the patented single-trigger control system, which allows all grip types to be controlled uniquely and reliably with fine sensitivity via the muscles alone. The hand does not need buttons on the back of the hand, motion controls or a smart device to select a function or grip. These types of control often take too long in practice, so the desired grips will be performe d more quickly by the natural hand. In contrast, all movements and handle changes of the VINCENTevolution4 are controlled exclusively and directly by the muscles of the prosthesis wearer and are therefore completely independent of the opposing natural hand or second prosthesis. The absence of buttons and the simplicity of the control system allow the user to safely control the prosthesis from any movement and in any situation and to achieve any grip change quickly and without errors. The prosthesis can thus optimally assist the opposite hand and thus contribute its full potential to everyday life. Uncompromisingly waterproof We have been able to implement many innovations with the new generation of hands. For example, the VINCENTevolution4 is the world's first hand prosthesis to achieve the IP68 degree of protection, which means it is uncompromisingly waterproof against continuous submersion up to a maximum of 1.5 meters for a maximum of 30 minutes, with no restrictions on the salt or chlorine content or the quality of the water. Elastic fingers The gel encapsulated fingers run more smoothly and the flexible mounting of the finger base joints allows the fingers to be squeezed together naturally when the hand is slightly spread. This not only makes the hand feel more natural, but the flexibility of the fingers also makes them much more robust and resistant to all kinds of stress. Adaptive shell For the first time, the shell of the metacarpus consists almost entirely of an elastic, high-strength material. The soft surface and its excellent adaptive properties significantly improve both the feel and the grip. In particular, the soft knuckles relieve the hand during support and extend the service life of the optionally available lifelike textile-based cosmetic gloves. A special innovation is also the completely dust-tight covering of the finger and thumb base joints. All openings of the hand have been closed by space-saving visor-like joint solutions. The optimized finger and thumb tips have been given finger nails and flattenings that enable even more precise gripping. The index finger is touch-screen compatible in the proven manner. Control with up to four muscles For the first time, a hand prosthesis has an integrated four-channel control system that allows up to four EMG sensors to be connected directly to the hand. The user can choose between two control variants: the single-signal control, in which all grips can be reached without problems and errors with only one switching signal, or the multi-channel control, in which several switching signals can be used to directly control the different grips. Controlling a bionic hand prosthesis has never been so easy and safe. Sensitive sense of touch A vibrotactile sense of touch has been integrated as standard in all VINCENT hand prostheses since VINCENTevolution1. The patented feedback of touch and gripping force provides the user with tactile information about finger strength through gentle coded vibrations of the hand, which are transmitted to the prosthesis shaft, and thus a feeling for the artificial hand. Gripping even fragile objects or sensitive control of the gripping force even without a direct eye contact to the object expand the options for the user. The extended hand feedback also stimulates the user's sensorimotor cortex, which can help reduce phantom limb pain. Tastes are different Five different basic colors give the VINCENTevolution4 an individual and unique design. The colors black, white, pearl white, transparent and natural are each available in combination with four different metal colors and titanium. 25 color combinations can be put together. A color change of the colored silicone parts is possible at any time. Less is more The smallest version of the VINCENTevolution4 XS weighs only approx. 390 g, making it not only the smallest and most stable multi-articulating hand prosthesis with 6 motors currently available, it is also by far the lightest.

  • Fluidhand1 | Vincent Systems

    1998 - Fluidhand 1 This first soft hand consists of thin foil layers, which have been joined together to form more complex drives in a sandwich construction. Five fingers, built up from 6 foil layers each, functionally welded in pairs, with the middle two foils forming the skeletal structure filled with epoxy resin. The outer two foil layers each form a fluidic muscle. For this purpose, two thin films were welded together in such a manner that chambers were formed in a row and connected to each other. When this structure is inflated with a gas or liquid, it contracts by about 20 % of its length, similar to the natural muscle, and the finger curls up like a bow. After a practical semester and his diploma thesis at the Karlsruhe Research Center (now KIT), Stefan Schulz graduated with a degree in electrical engineering and device systems technology from the University of Rostock and took up a position as a research assistant at the Research Center. Already as a student at the University of Rostock, Schulz worked on the development of alternative miniature drives and patented a process for the production of planar fluid drives on a foil basis. At the Research Center, he continued developing this technology, particularly targeting applications in the field of fluidic robotics, so-called soft robotics in the environment of medical technology research topics. The aim of the work was to develop new drives for instruments used in minimally invasive surgery. Schulz's first applications for the new technology were flexible fluid actuators, miniature catheters for diagnostics, endoscope guidance systems for minimally invasive surgery and diagnostic colonoscopy systems. Fluidhand 1 was created as a “by-product” during the development of a camera guidance system for laparoscopy. The same artificial muscles that enable the movement of a laparoscope camera also work in the Fluidhand 1. In this process, two layers of film are welded together in a diamond-like pattern to form a chamber. When a pressure is applied to this chamber, the flexurally limp but stretch-resistant foil layers form circular arcs, resulting in a shortening of the previously flat structure. The artificial muscles formed in this way work as agonist and antagonist in the Fluidhand 1 and enable the artificial finger and thumb to be bent and stretched and stiffened. A single finger can describe a 180 degree arc, but the force of the artificial muscles is very low due to the material and not suitable for holding objects heavier than approx. 100 g. Up
